Serendia Wellness ~ Conscious Wellness with Jessica Barker
This month we’ve put the spotlight on Jessica Barker, one of our wonderful students, who now runs her own business, Serendia Wellness! Read her inspiring story below.
“One of my first memories of sound being integrated into a Yoga Class (that I attended), was when I lived in Vancouver, Canada – the cello was played alongside the teacher instructing.
This was a beautiful experience that stayed with me until I came back to the UK. It was a dream to recreate that here, so I did just that and found a musician I work with to this day. I saw first hand how sound would only add another dimension of healing into my current practices, as well as opening up so much creativity and possibility.
I was drawn to the Academy because of their in depth courses. I wanted time, support, excellent teachers and a great community, and that’s what I got! I completed the Level 1 Multi Instrument and the Level 2 Diploma For Groups, which I finished in June this year.
In terms of my business, introducing another tool to my practice has increased my income significantly, which I am very grateful for. I love how many creative possibilities there are and that I’m able to help more people! I just reached 3 years of working for myself at Serendía, my own business born in Mexico, from a love of feeling, with all the senses. Serendía is living in the present, living consciously.
I love working for myself, it’s really empowering. I teach weekly Yin Yoga & Sound sessions in a magical Yurt, and I run monthly blended sessions incorporating breath work, yoga and sound, as well as sound baths.
I host retreat days every few months and run residential retreats 1/2 times per year, and I also started introducing sound into my Massage Therapy sessions, which I find helps people’s mental chatter to switch off quicker!
Staying connected to other sound practitioners is important. Working for myself can feel lonely and sometimes overwhelming, so having people I trust to share ideas with, ask questions and maybe challenge each other only helps me grow!
On this note, collaborating is something I strongly believe in and will continue to do. We all have such unique skills, and when passionate people join together to create, it’s amazing. We learn so much from each other.
Lastly, I think experiencing sound healing for yourself is also an important part of the process!
With over a decade of experience internationally in the wellness industry, I now blend my knowledge and passions for self care and preventative holistic health to make a positive impact. My goal is to inspire, educate and motivate people on their holistic, transformative journey.
I look forward to connecting!”
Fill Your Cup First: The Key To Being Your Best For Others This Christmas
The holiday season is a time for giving, celebration, and connection, but it can also bring a whirlwind of demands – family gatherings, gift shopping, hosting, and so much more.
It’s easy to get caught up in doing everything for everyone else, leaving little energy for yourself. But here’s the truth: to be the best for others, you must first be the best for yourself.
Think of it like this: you can’t pour from an empty cup. When you take care of yourself, you’re able to show up more fully and joyfully for the people around you. This means making self-care a priority, even when it feels like everyone else’s needs are calling louder. One powerful way to do sio is through sound healing.
1. Take Time For Daily Sound Meditation
Even just 10 minutes of sound healing can have a profound impact on your mood and energy. Whether it’s playing a soothing instrument like a Native American style flute or simply listening to a calming sound bath, sound healing helps calm the mind, reduce stress, and reconnect you with your inner peace.
2. Use Tuning Forks For Energy Balance
Feeling out of alignment? Tuning forks can help you realign your energy, grounding and balancing you when life feels chaotic. Just a few minutes of tuning fork therapy can restore harmony within your body and mind.
3. Create A Relaxing Soundscape
Set the tone for self-care by creating a soundscape in your home. Play relaxing, harmonic music or nature sounds in the background while you engage in other activities like wrapping presents or cooking. This can keep you feeling centered and at peace even as you go about your holiday tasks.
Remember, taking care of yourself doesn’t mean neglecting others, it’s the opposite.
By prioritizing your own well-being, you’ll have more energy, love, and joy to give to those around you. So, as the holiday season unfolds, make it a point to slow down, breathe, and let sound healing be your guide to balance and inner calm!
